    Solar Water Disinfection

    I found an interesting PDF tonight on solar water disinfection that looks like it could be useful in times of real need. From my reading it is not useful for everything at all times. It does appear to be dependant on the temps you can acheive.

    The technique is used in a lot of 3rd world countries, in particular, areas that have very little wood to use for fuel to boil water.

    great find, thanks
    I am me,
    I am free,
    You can not change me.

    If you try, you will see,
    That I am unchangeable,
    Because I am me.

    Works for killing pathogens, but not removing chemical contamination (including heavy metals, organophosphates, etc).

    A better method than none for some things. Useless on others. Still better than nothing.

    Looks pretty good from a quick scan. Reminds me of where there is no doctor book. I don't have the link but You can find that as well. They would compliment each other
